Cathay Pacific Airways is in talks to purchase around six Airbus A350 freighters, marking a significant decision in the competition between Airbus and Boeing for the business of one of the world's top-five freight carriers. Cathay Pacific operates the underlying 777 and A350 passenger models, and as the world's fifth-largest air freight carrier and the third-largest traditional freight airline, the potential purchase is worth some $2 billion at list prices before discounts.
